2 Dry saturated steam is the most effective heat treatment to kill pathogens, spoilage organisms and infestations. RISK ASSESSMENT Regulatory Landscape Micro-organisms are naturally present in low moisture foods Even though no growth is possible, the presence of pathogenic organisms in low numbers can be harmful Implementation of the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) will have far reaching implications for the food industry Based on the almond industries risk assessment, a 4-log reduction is required to sell almonds in North America; however the FDA performance criteria for labeling almonds as pasteurized is 5-log. NAPASOL PERFORMANCE The Napasol system is precisely controlled & the process can be adapted to your desired logreduction (2-log - 7-log) Extend your products shelf life Reliably conform with the microbiological specifications of your most demanding customers A validated pasteurization process that ensures all the product is pathogen free, protects your brand from costly recalls and opens new markets for your high quality products PASTEURIZATIONIN saturated steam conditions Steam pasteurization effectively kills: Pathogens (Salmonella, E. coli, Enterobacteria), spoilage micro-organisms (mold, yeast), infestations (insects at all stages of their life-cycle) Dry saturated steam is much more effective than wet steam or superheated steam Dry saturated steam can be applied at a variety of temperatures including low temperature in a vacuum, protecting delicate products from exposure to excessive heat

Manage the microbiological safety of your products in-house VALIDATED KILLSTEP for low moisture products Treatment of products of all

reduction for a wide range of products No moisture pick-up and minimal impact on the organoleptic qualities of the product Precisely

3 Manage the microbiological safety of your products in-house VALIDATED KILLSTEP for low moisture products Treatment of products of all shapes and sizes; Whole kernels or pieces, leaves, roots, cut, diced, sliced and ground products and powders Validated 5-log pathogen reduction for a wide range of products No moisture pick-up and minimal impact on the organoleptic qualities of the product Precisely adjustable pasteurization temperatures from 60 C C (140 F F) Organic process, no use of chemicals CUSTOMBUILT for your product flow Napasol s modular systems cover a wide range of capacities 150kg/h kg/h ( lbs/h) Flexible logistical solutions Compact footprint that fits into your production environment All units are custom built to customer specifications LOWOPERATINGCOSTS Give you the competitive Edge Low energy consumption due to closed loop thermal system No moving parts means low maintenance cost High level of automation results in reduced labor cost Automated record keeping for full traceability and documentation of each batch

Blending and pasteurizing of free flowing products in one step ROTOSOLDESIGN Rotating blender/pasteurizer ROTOSOL s new design keeps the products free flowing.

4 Blending and pasteurizing of free flowing products in one step ROTOSOLDESIGN Rotating blender/pasteurizer ROTOSOL s new design keeps the products free flowing. The dynamic process is ideally suited for grains, pellets, powders, mixes and other free flowing products. Dry saturated steam delivers a validated >5log reduction performance The rotation gently moves the product throughout the pasteurization/sterilization cycle keeping even the most difficult powders free flowing Automated loading and unloading facilitates the handling of powders reducing dust in your production facility FEATURES Stainless steel construction Precisely heated double jacket heating Mirror polished interior for facilitated unloading and cleaning Automated valve for loading and unloading Cooling system available for certain products Easy to use control panel (Touch Panel) Napasol software package Easy integration into existing production environment Complete engineering and consulting service by Napasol Integrated CIP system for efficient cleaning COMPACT EQUIPMENT CUSTOMBUILT Small footprint To your specifications Combined blending/pasteurization capability simplifies your production process The compact installation easily fits in most production environments Short cycle times facilitates the integration of the process into a continuous production flow Optional cooling step can be integrated for certain products Napasol s modular systems cover a range of capacities: from 150kg/h up to kg/h ( lbs/h) Extend your blending/pasteurization capacity with the growing needs of your company by adding additional units sharing the existing auxiliary systems (steam, chilled water, compressed air)
